Kansas City, here he comes: Kyle Williams quickly finds new home

A day after he was released by the Niners, the fourth-year wideout was claimed by the 9-0 Chiefs, where he will reunite with former teammates in quarterback Alex Smith, wide receiver A.J. Jenkins and cornerback Marcus Cooper.

Williams, however, won’t reconnect with Chad Hall. The former 49ers wide receiver was released to make room for Williams on the roster, according to FOX Sports.

Cornerback Perrish Cox, who was also released by the 49ers on Tuesday, was not claimed today.

“It’s not one of those you feel great on, on one side of the coin, for those two guys not being with us today,” Jim Harbaugh said. “But two guys that really contributed. Kyle Williams, in his case, fought back from injury, rehab and a great testament to him. So, it’s tough. A really, really hard decision.”
